A little interesting bit of information. Most people convicted of violent crimes in this country are males aged 16 to 24. It's an undeniable fact that this age group commits the most violent crimes. Between the years of 1989 and 1997 there was a significant decrease in violent crime in most major cities. Many social scientists attemped to explain this, however, nobody could fine a reason why. Recently, a discovery was made to explain this decrease in crime. 1989 and 1997 are 16 and 24 years after 1973, the year of Roe vs Wade. Additionally, crime had little to no decrease in states where abortion was legal before 1973.
